Our Sails

Island Planet Sails is justifiably proud of its sail design team and manufacturing partners.
Great sails start with great designs. Our designer has decades of sailmaking and design experience.
We use the best design programs like
Smar-Azure and SMASW for most of our
design needs. We have also used Sail Pack, which was created for the Luna Rossa America's Cup
campaign. Our customers customarily receive a grahic rendering of their sail prior to
construction. There are some renderings of customer sails on our Facebook page, which is accessible
from our home page.

Design is only part of the equation. Without the proper base material a sail is bound to
disappoint. We encourage customers to ask questions about cloth choices. Cloth used
in our sails undergoes stringent acceptance testing at our production loft. Nothing is left to chance.
Under no circumstances do we use seconds or other manufacturer rejected sailcloth.
Our cloth is sourced from well regarded manufacturers like Bainbridge, Challenge, and
Dimension Polyant.

Island Planet Sails has a highly efficient low overhead business model and
spends little on advertising. Glossy magazines ads cost a lot of
money. Who pays for them ultimately? Salaries for professional sailors employed by sailmakers
helping millionaires win bragging rights is absorbed by customers
of that sailmaker. Who pays for that?

We supply sailors with quality custom built sails at affordable prices. We don't compromise
any aspect of our sails. Our sails usually cost less than our competition thanks to our efficiency
and reliance on repeat and referral business to grow our business instead of expensive ads. If you can handle
a tape measue and measure your own rig, we can supply the best values in new sails. We have helped
hundreds of like minded sailors. Take a few moments to fill out our quote form and discover what
we can do for you.
